mark robins on radio shitfield

we have no one in defence who will jump for headers. campbell-ryce has blood behind his eye from the ball hitting him.
at hospital now.
thomson basically wasn't good enough and took him off because we were getting overrun.
hume, hammil and jcr were plus points.
hoping for new faces before tuesdays game

 

Thomson signed on the evidence of one game against a team that played against us and who never needed to get out of first gear,what does this tell you about the previous manager

 

I think he just has a kink for cheap foreign players. Im sure I heard Robins mention bringing in a new chief scout in a recent interview.

 

apparently he was flagged up by our scouts?

does anyone know who are scouts are?

 

Do we have any right now?

Or were our scouts all Davey contacts?

lets get this straight

why exactly would simon davey who had a pretty uninspiring short football career with two or three lower league clubs and has since then coached kids until arriving at barnsley have loads of amazing contacts in all corners of the world?

Much more likely that the CLUB has contacts via a recognised scouting system than that simon davey former kids coach has them

 

Daveys chief scouting contact was a Mr U Tube.

 

Must be some of Baden Powells,using their semaphore flags

 

RE: lets get this straight

Who said they were amazing contacts? Many of the players have failed. But he did travel around a bit while doing his coaching badges. I am sure I read somewhere that he spent a year doing research and coaching jobs around the globe while he was doing his badges. He will have built up contacts, maybe not at the top level. If it is the clubs scouting network then why did the foreign buying only get going once Davey joined us? And why can't we think of any scouts (unless you can)? Last one I can remember was Wilkinson, that was a few years ago. I think Robins coming in will be bringing his own 'contacts' to the club. I don't doubt that the club (through PC) have scouting contacts they can use but do we employ a dedicated scout?

 

Be fair to Thompson he's played 15mins of a effing 1st team game!!!1

He won most of his headers from what i saw

Give him chance

 

I thought it was JCR recommended Thomson nt

 

a few new faces, i would say we need 7 or 8 simply not good enough I feel for mark robins !

 

RE: I thought it was JCR recommended Thomson nt

That is my point. The club don't have a scouting network to speak of. They have the contacts of the staff they employ, managers, players etc. Daveys contacts have now gone, Robins has, and will, bring his own. Or am I wrong, do we have scouts contracted to us?

So he's a Stevie Wonder fan and a Labour supporter.

RE: lets get this straight

So because he wasn't an amazing footballer he can't have contacts. Biggest pile of **** I've read on here I think.
